Complete Loss of Control

"BOOM--!!!"

A world-shattering roar echoed as the long sword fiercely struck the edge of Konohagakure. Terrifying sword energy instantly erupted, sweeping across the entire village like a surging tide.

The ground was split open by a massive chasm, which continuously extended until it became a cliff stretching for thousands of meters, dividing Konohagakure in two!

Countless houses collapsed under the impact of the sword energy, kicking up dust and wood chips into the air.

"What's happening?!"

"What's going on? Is it an earthquake?!"

"Enemy attack! It's an enemy attack! Everyone be on alert immediately!"

Villagers, awakened from their sleep by the loud noise and tremors, opened their eyes to witness a doomsday scene before them.

Terrified screams, despairing cries, and panicked roars instantly filled the entire Konohagakure.

Some were buried under collapsed houses, groaning painfully in the ruins;

Some clutched their children and fled frantically, only to be tripped by the chaotic crowd;

Others looked up and saw the colossal Susanoo Armor that blotted out the sky, their bodies going limp from fear, unable to even muster the strength to run.

"Help me! Please help me! Someone save me!"

"Run! If you don't run, you'll die! Someone help!"

"What is that?! It's a monster! A monster that will destroy the village!"

Heart-wrenching screams and terrified roars intertwined, turning the once peaceful Konohagakure into a living hell.

However, what made Itachi Uchiha's scalp tingle even more was yet to come!

He clearly saw the nearly ten thousand soul bodies of the Uchiha clan behind Genki being slowly absorbed by him.

As the last wisp of soul body merged into Genki's body, his special Mangekyo Sharingan erupted with dazzling light once more—the domain of Magatsunokami was actually extending again!

The Yomi Domain, which could barely cover the Uchiha clan compound, now spread like a wildly expanding black tide at a visible speed.

In just a few minutes, it had expanded to encompass the entire Konohagakure—this massive village, capable of housing a hundred thousand people, was instantly shrouded in a chilling, despair-filled domain!

Wherever the domain passed, the souls of countless villagers began to tremble uncontrollably, as if they could be stripped from their bodies at any moment.

Itachi Uchiha felt the terrifying soul-devouring power within the domain, his back instantly drenched in cold sweat. An unprecedented fear completely seized his heart.

It's out of control... Everything is completely out of control!

Itachi Uchiha froze in place, his blood seeming to solidify at that moment.

He stared intently at the expanding, bizarre domain around him. The chilling aura, which seemed capable of devouring all souls, coiled around him like countless cold venomous snakes, suffocating him.

His heart pounded wildly in his chest, and a panic like never before surged over him like a tide, causing his fingertips to tremble uncontrollably.

He suddenly remembered something that had been overlooked, something that made his scalp tingle—this Uchiha clan compound they were in was not the true Uchiha clan compound at all!

The land in the center of the village, designated as the core area, was where the Uchiha clan had originally lived for generations. Countless bloodlines and soul imprints of their clansmen were settled there!

As this realization dawned, another change occurred!

"Buzzz--!!!"

The core of the bizarre domain suddenly erupted with a stronger gravitational pull. The next second, tens of thousands of pale blue soul bodies, as if receiving a fatal summons, surged out from every corner of Konohagakure, even from the depths of the earth, converging towards Uchiha Genki in mid-air!

These souls were no longer limited to the Uchiha clansmen he had killed tonight—there were the souls of ninjas who had fallen in the Third Shinobi World War, their soul bodies still bearing the remnants of smoke and blood;

There were the souls of warriors who had perished in the Second Shinobi World War, their soul bodies marked with wounds from cold weapon penetrations;

There were even the souls of ancestors who had died in the First Shinobi World War, or even further back in time, their forms blurred but emanating an ancient and weathered aura!

"Ah--!!! Hahahahaha--!!!"

Uchiha Genki let out a long roar towards the sky, his voice a mixture of extreme pain and madness.

This time, the pain flooding into his mind was tens of thousands of times stronger than before!

It was no longer just the memories and pain of the Uchiha clan, but the lifelong experiences of ninjas from various nations like the Land of Fire, Land of Wind, and Land of Water—the brutal battles, the despair of defeat, the grief of losing loved ones, the resentment of being betrayed by comrades...

Even more terrifying was that these souls encompassed all forms of death: the brutality of dying in battle, the torment of dying from illness, the resolve of suicide, and the souls of those secretly captured by Shimura Danzō and subjected to human experimentation with Sarutobi Hiruzen's tacit approval, who died miserably. Their memories were filled with the coldness of the experiment table, the excruciating pain of their bodies being dissected, and endless resentment towards the village's higher-ups!

Countless chaotic memories and extreme emotions surged like a torrential flood, violently impacting his consciousness, as if to tear his soul apart.

But in just an instant, this extreme pain was cast aside, replaced by even more hysterical laughter.

What was this pain?

Compared to personally burying the mother and sister he most wanted to protect, compared to watching their souls be devoured by his own Dojutsu, completely cutting off any possibility of revival, this pain was utterly insignificant!

No matter how intense the physical and spiritual torment, it couldn't compare to the tenth of the despair in his heart!

His eyes turned crimson, bloodshot. The Mangekyo Sharingan with its six Magatama symbols flickered with a destructive, insane light. The Chakra around him churned like boiling magma.

"He's completely lost it! If this continues, the entire Konoha, even the entire Shinobi world, will be dragged into hell by him! We have to stop him!"

Itachi Uchiha's gaze suddenly turned resolute. Even though he knew the vast disparity in strength, he didn't flinch in the slightest.

He made an instant decision, his scarlet Mangekyo Sharingan spinning rapidly as the Chakra around him erupted to its limit!

Before he could complete his subsequent action, the thousand-meter-tall, pitch-black Susanoo Armor before him had already sensed his hostility.

The giant hand suddenly gripped the Eight-Handled Sword at its waist and, with world-destroying momentum, swung fiercely towards him!

The sky-obscuring giant sword sliced through the night sky. The bizarre patterns on the sword body emitted a chilling glow. The terrifying sword energy, before it even arrived, had already caused the surrounding air to distort and the ground to crack.

Itachi Uchiha's pupils constricted. Without the slightest hesitation, he fully activated his Susanoo Armor!

"Susanoo Armor!"

Pale red Chakra instantly condensed into form, rapidly expanding into its Perfect Form, nearly a hundred meters tall.

The crimson Susanoo Armor wielded the Totsuka Blade, and behind it floated a circular bronze mirror—the divine artifact of the Uchiha clan, the Yata no Kagami, capable of blocking all physical attacks!

Itachi controlled the Susanoo Armor, blocking with the Yata no Kagami held before him, attempting to withstand the terrifying slash.

A sliver of hope remained in his heart, believing the divine artifact's defensive power would be enough for him to counterattack.

However, in the next second, a scene of utter despair and disbelief unfolded!
